Eric Church: ‘I Think Genres Are Dead’

After a very out-of-the-box performance at the 2013 CMA Awards, Eric Church is speaking out about the country music label.

On country music’s biggest night, Church performed his new single, ‘The Outsiders,’ for the very first time and introduced fans to a very different sound for him. The performance was rock ‘n roll with a side of country, but the singer doesn’t think people should be so quick to label the song.

“And I think the cool thing about Nashville is it is at the epicenter of that kind of thinking,” he explains. “I’m a country music artist in Nashville, but Nashville is way, way, way bigger than country music.”

The ‘Drink in My Hand’ singer seems to love Music City and says it helped his dreams come true. In his words, “If you’re passionate enough about what you do, if you’re good enough at what you do, all your dreams can come true in this town.”
